OCVarsity has the pairings and analysis for all of the CIF-SS girls basketball divisions.
DIVISION 2AA
Top four seeds: 1. Rosary; 2. Camarillo; 3. Rowland; 4. Los Altos
Playoff dates: First round (Feb. 16), Second round (Feb. 18), Quarterfinals (Feb. 22), Semifinals (Feb. 25), Championship game (March 3 or 4).
CONNOLLY’S COMMENTS: After it was ranked atop the CIF’s divisional poll for much of the season, Rosary finds itself as the team to beat in a bracket that’s filled will quality county squads. … Camille Lira, Alli Iannone and Katherine Goostrey are about as solid a backcourt trio as there was in the area this year, and they’ll be the key if Rosary hopes to make a championship run. … Tustin went 23-3 this year and could see the Royals in the quarterfinals. … After knocking off Orange Lutheran last week and surviving the Trinity League slate, JSerra is about as scary a draw as there is, and has the talent to make a run as an at-large entry. … Santa Margarita has lost six straight headed into the postseason, but if the Eagles can refocus after a week off, Tori Anderson and fellow seniors Morgan McMullen and Isabella Maramica have played in two CIF championship games in their high school careers.
All games 7 p.m. unless noted.
